TvPaint 11 - hide/unhide squiggle + color pick option

[Brusen]

Using the new color in the CTG layer, is a sweet option.
I can only see great potential with this new feature!

However, I feel it hinders me that I cannot see what is going on underneath without toggling to another layer, or previewing the animation. Is there a hide/unhide button, and what is it called?

Regarding color-picking,
Is it possible to make the squiggle "invisible" for the color picker, so that I can color pick without endangering that I accidentally grab the color of the grid the squiggle has, instead of the color beneath?

Best regards Troels

That is great!
Thank you

Then it is only the color picker that should be able to color pick without being affected by the squiggle-grid.

Try using "edit clors" in the popup menu of the icon on the bottom left of your ctg layer (the color palette). You can pick directly the colors already on your ctg layer, it's important to never use the wrong color (especially if you need to export the colors separately afterward, you don't want to have 2 times the same color).

That is a good tip. I did not know that.

If you set one of the two (or both) "squiggle" value to 0% in the display settings panel, then you can pick the correct color from the squiggle.
Besides I think the color picker should be able to pick from the squiggles because sometimes there are two squiggles next to each other (the "old" and the "new").
